Homemade "Nutella"

I'm kind of on a Nutella kick right now. Who isn't? It's all over Pinterest and other fun food blogs. Well, I decided that Nutella has way too much sugar in it, so I wanted to make my own version of Nutella, with less sugar! So far I've eaten this homemade "nutella" with bananas, toast, apples, off of my fingers, and on graham crackers.

1. Roast hazelnuts at 425 F on a un-greased rimmed baking sheet, for 10 minutes. (Watch this process very closely. It's really easy to burn hazelnuts! As soon as I could smell the hazelnuts, they were done roasting. Kind of smells like pancakes!)

2. Let hazelnuts cool for a few minutes, then rub off the skins in a paper-towel, or with your fingernails.

3. Put peeled hazelnuts into a food processor. Process until fairly smooth (it won't be as creamy as Nutella.) This took me about 2 minutes, on and off.
